I had to laugh too, ’cause this is coming from the guy who makes a bigger deal over other sites’ pages disappearing into the memory hole than any other blogger, and who has labeled folks a “craven coward” for blocking the Wayback Machine and Google cache. In other words, this isn’t about the % of total threads or anything like that; we’re simply calling him out for being a complete hypocrite (since none of the active lizards are brave enough to do it).

Anyway, is it 47? I don’t know; I’ve never sat down and counted. But however many that we have on that page, it only represents the deleted threads/pages that we’ve been able to recover. That, of course, is an important distinction. We know there are many more missing, but we can’t exactly prove it (with screencaps), because… CJ has blocked the Wayback Machine and Google cache. Funny how that works.

“Some were deleted shortly after being posted because they were mistakes or proved to be bad sources.”

Yes, Chucky, I have to agree that’s a fair reason for quick deletion.
So I assume that you will apologize to Jim Hoft for your hysterical reaction last week to his quick deletion of news that proved to be inaccurate. Eh?
😆

He has nothing to hide. He just blocks google cache, deletes pages, erases comments, blocks the wayback machine and google cache in order “to keep bad information off the interwebs”. While he has critized others for doing the exact same things.
And also used others doing so as a defense.
Tu quoque, indeed.

“Fron 2001 until 2008, LGF was eeeeevil, eeeeevil, eeeeevil, but since it has become double-plus good, and Charles hasn’t changed” about sum it up? obicunt is about the worst of the psychophants. I’m sure he makes Chuckles’ loins swell with pride 🙄

It does not matter what percentage of posts the Mad King deletes—or restores from deletion. He deleted his integrity, any pretension to honesty, and, indeed, any vestige of his manhood when he began revising history to fit his personal pique.

Chuck only deleted comments because they were made by crazy stalkers LOL.

Wow, the things you learn about yourself from Andrew Breitbart’s sycophants!
Did you know I once had a post that said Palestinians are cannibals? No? Neither did I. (And in fact, I didn’t.)
Did you know that I’ve been engaged in mass deletions of my archives, to hide all evidence of my extremist past? No? Neither did I. (I haven’t.)
Did you know that I’ve deleted a lot of comments from LGF? Actually, yes, that is true, because I block-wiped the entire contributions of some of the worst abusers of LGF’s earlier days, people like Iron Fist and the venal little twerps who run the stalker sites. I make no apologies for that whatsoever. Their hateful, often sick comments were laying there like old turds, and the place is cleaner without them.

Maybe they’re still mad at CJ over the TANG memo/Dan Rather take-down and decided they won’t validate his recent feverish blame-the-right for Loughner posts . That’s got to be tough for him either way. Even if they agreed with him that Loughner’s lunacy is right-wing inspired he’s already proved they’re lying assholes. And when they don’t he just looks like a hyperbolic ass along with the rest of the left-wing lose-tards.

Those whom he deleted were not abusers. Nor did they commence to own or run any of what he calls “stalker sites” until such time as he had already banned and blocked the commenters in question.

Paranoids generally do have enemies in the real world, and they have those enemies because THEY DESERVE THEM. The only problem is that the paranoids are rarely overcome and destroyed by their real-world enemies anywhere near soon enough.

fat pig CFnJ didn’t delete my comments. he should though because, you know, you can’t have a fanatic creationist leaving “turds” all over his stinky website. he should also delete the front page threads that are literally MY pictures and the result of MY time and effort.

I’m a “worst abuser”? How amusing. He could delete my posts, but he can’t delete that I was one of the core posters when LGF was really something. That is, for what it is worth (very little, actually :P) beyond his feeble poewer to redact. At the time, he didn’t mind what I said, and there were a lot of people who felt I had a valid arguement to put forward.

So, a control freak JUST HAPPENED to let crap lay around for years and FINALLY got around to deleting it? But Klansman Trout drops some turds over at HotAir and then whines with Daddy Cuckles when they aren’t immediately erased. UrS lOgIc iS cOnFuSinG!!!

snowcrash :
He is broke and can’t afford the upkeep and he is a slimeball.

My inference was that it’s a way for Johnson to scrub his history for days and weeks at a time (the scrubbed time spans are increasing in length) and still claim he hasn’t really deleted any history. It’s just that 60% of his history isn’t there 33% of the time when you might happen to look for it, not that he’d ever admit to that math.

He’s obviously just trying to keep hidden for most of the time just what a right-wing sympathizer he was for number of years from his new left-wing audience. He went full-on Dennis Miller and then tried to come back. It just ain’t gonna work. That site was strong right-wing POV or I wouldn’t have been there. He and the commenters zinged the left-lunies daily, hour by hour. He’s trying to inch himself to a spot where that can be reconciled some how without admitting it’s the case.

I think Chuck misses the point. The point is he can no longer start his flame wars without the DoD being involved. He can no longer, from this day forward claim he does not read this site because he admitted today that he did. He also can no longer pull his shit and ignore this place because we are one tweet away from putting his follies in the hands of the people that he’s smearing.

His fatal error, that he made a couple of years ago, was pissing off large numbers of people, most of whom were smarter than him. If there’s another situation like this anywhere on the internet, I’m not aware of it. He has a nemesis site, and the people there (here) are getting copious entertainment making him walk around in the streets with his undies around his ankles.

Not smart being so fast and loose with your superiors, Chuck. You’re like Ahmadinnerjacket, thinking that your high-tech nuke plant is so super-keen, only to find out that your nemesis snuck a mickey into it, and now your hosed.

Chuck, the internet is a dangerous place for people like you who think you’re smarter than you are.

There was a construction supervisor like this, once. His crew learned to ALWAYS make him sign off on any changes by signing his name next to the changes on the blueprint. No signee, no workee.
All too often he would disavow the needed changes. They would stick EXACTLY to the print, or hold off if the work wasn’t possible.

I have seen charles say that he never used that phrase. Yet he was able to take the credit in your link. He has it both ways. It seems to depend on which way current opinion flows. He is able to chastise others for their flaws, but his own he wiggles around. That is human nature, I suppose. But he is not able to keep those he disagrees with as friends. It would be better to disagree, and gently remand them and try to make them reconsider. Instead, there is much wailing and gnashing of teeth and rending of clothes and wearing of sackcloth and heaping of ashes upon the head.

It is never; “My friend, sadly, has become a bigot, but I still love him and will attempt to help him regain his sanity.”

Nope.

It is instead; “AHHHH! You Bigot! Begone from me you foul and unclean beast!”

Absurdly, Johnson mentions deleting articles relating to Fjordman as a rationale for his deletions but in fact (possibly he’s lost track) there are 16 Fjordman articles that have been subject to his “sometimes deletions” that are currently in an undeleted state. He’s deleted them before, brought them back, deleted them again, etc. Currently they’re undeleted:

So once again his double standard. He can still have articles from a European fascist and write articles for terror enabling “al Guardian”. But everyone else has to delink from those who link to someone who used to have racist ties but now disavows them? How does he not expect to be judged harshly after he has judged others so harshly/

I’m drinking some kind of fruity herbal tea on this worknight, but yeah…I’ve been smiling and laughing so much through this thread, my wife thinks I must be having an online fling or something. 😆

The thread could have been titled, “Bernie Madoff Explains The Missing Funds,” and been about as deadpan-hilarious. Thank you, Chunky, for giving us so many belly-laughs during this Rotten Year Of Obama. We look forward to more, before your failed venture goes totally pendulous-tits up.

ChenZhen, as The Minotaur
I do have another thread on deck, but this came up and is going to wind up delaying it until later. The LGFers will have kittens when they see it; we’ve got a throbbing memo and everything.

The question is how much of his personal money isChuckles willing to spend to keep LGF upo as a vanity site. He can’t be making any money off of it, but it also isn’t sucking up the bandwidth requirements it had when it had 100,000 loyal readers. It probably costs him $100 or less a month to keep it on air. Yeah, that is a small car payment, but it isn’t the end of the world. Or is it? After the pig of a site he has ass the example of his work for the last ten years, he isn’t getting programming jobs, and he was never a graphic designer. The only interesting graphics he ever had were done by Cox and Forkum. Money may be getting a little thin…

I’m not certain but I thought I’d read here a few months ago that he rec’vd a goodly sized inheritance somewhere in the 800 grand range. I’ve also heard he lives in a gated community. So I would guess he took some of that money, bought himself a nice house and started blogging with little pressure to do anything except take the occasional gig so he doesn’t have to cut into his principal. Unless he’s taken a big hit in investments I assume he can continue like this indefinitely taking a few bucks in from the loozards who actually gave him their credit card numbers to stop the ads. That probably covers the costs or maybe he has to kick in just a little here and there.

As one of the people who have been with Ace and his spinoff blogs (an HotAir as well), I love what you guys do here. You, among others, have rattled him so much, he is like a quarterback who has been hit too many times and “hears footsteps”. He is lashing out, and getting his ass kicked on twitter on a damn near daily basis, and it is a thing of beauty.

My hat is off to you. Keep up the good work. And protect your flanks from his “out-bots” that he unleashes in retaliation.

IIRC, he pulled out the “whatever” (or something similar) card on Meliisa Clouthier and never directly responded the Nolte, just trying to distract and divert to the next “squirrel”. I wonder if it’s hitting him that he or the few left in the bunker are cannon fodder if/when they try to debate outside of the protection of the Green Wall. I mean, nobody left over there will dare mention it to him, for the fear of banning and outing (prolly why LVQ has been so well behaved since he came back) is too great. So, they wander outside the walls, believing their own updings and karma ratings, only to get humiliated by people who have functioning cortexes.

And you wonder why Kos, Huffpo, MediaMatters, TPM, and ThinkProgress don’t want anything to do with him and his bunker dwellers?

Yeah there are small-time bloggers and then there are talented media types who are merely using the blog format along with others. CJ gets his ass kicked by the latter. He must know now he can’t ascend to the next level like a Michelle Malkin or Breitbart who are both actual journalists and TV/photo-genic personalities. And when he tangles with them they rip him to shreds.

Hey Speranza!
You want to borrow my waders and rubber gloves? The best turds are the ones right down in the bottom of the tank.
Oh, if you find a lunchbox down there it is mine, I dropped it yesterday and there is still half a sandwich left. It should still be OK, it is wrapped up. You can have it.

Thanks but no thanks, ISTE just going over to cache:littlegreenfootballs.com makes me nauseous and I wouldn’t want to eat your food.

It’s one of the oldest urban legends around, but the story is quite reminiscent of the way Chunky is flopping around on the remains of his once-thriving blog. The Beta Band is not going to make anyone forget the Beatles, but they re-enacted a version of the old tale in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75oT42sH-iE

He’s not half fat enough, but with the bicycle helmet on, he does bear a certain crazy resemblance to our own King Adipose Rex. I got a good laugh out of it, anyway.

I don’ think Chunk ever discussed his opinion on the subject.
back in the day, there was one verboten topic at the swamp.
And that was abortion.
His stated rational was that the topic was so divisive that all it did was start flame wars between poster.
Yup….back then there was a stated concern for topics that caused arguments.

Of course later on it became “Bash Christians all the time”, and if you didn’t like it…..tough sh*t.

In fact, Chuck was opposed to the Baby Born Alive act, which even NARAL didn’t oppose and which even the Boxer, Mikulski, Pelosi crowd voted for.

He got into an argument with opnion (RIX) about that issue. At first CJ laid down the Obama defense, claiming that the Illinois act didn’t have the same language protecting abortion ‘rights’ as the federal one did. When RIX demolished that fiction, CJ said it didn’t matter and he would have voted the way Obama did.

You know the drill. CJ bases his whole case on X. Someone proves X is false. CJ says X doesn’t matter and anyone who disagrees with him is a poo-poo head.
*yawn*

You still live on at LGF thru your rule. Even with all your posts deleted, the “Iron Fist Rule” is mentioned in 928 comments (thru yesterday…).

Charles is so pathetic. Lashing out at conservative bloggers on twitter in a desperate plea for attention.

What a has been.

We keep trying to tell you, Charles. LGF was never about you. It was great when you were invisible. You’re so egotistical that you can’t see the direct correlation between your participation and the sites demise.

Exactly. It was so much better when he kept a low profile. Now he’s all over his own blog, bullying his readers while making sure they all conform to the group-think that he enforces. Why people continue to post there is beyond me.

Funny thing is, it was his being invisible that made him a great Jazz guitarist as well, as long as his claim to fame wasn’t his guitar playing itself, but who he played for he was famous for something. Had he ever recorded a CD of his own music he would have experienced the exact same fiery crash to earth his blog is experiencing because of his profound intellect.

That’s a metaphor for the early years of LFG, if you think about it. He ran a great blog, as long as he kept his mouth shut, and let people smarter than him make the profound comments. What he did in the past three years is analogous to kicking the jazz greats that he was playing with off the stage and inviting a bunch of high school kids to jam.

Quite concur, and we see what an airhead he really is. He is a shut-in (as Breitbart calls him) and is becoming increasingly delusional.
